#IAM appeal

In 1885 Aberdeen Art Gallery was founded by visionary individuals who gave their time, money and works of art for the benefit of the city.

In 1925 the Cowdray Hall was added, together with the Remembrance Hall, generously supported by public subscription. These much-loved buildings are no longer fit for purpose and our once-in-a-lifetime redevelopment project is creating a world class visitor attraction celebrating the inspiring power of art and music for everyone.

We are asking for the support of our entire community to help us realise this ambitious project for our city and the North East of Scotland.

Be part of #IAM! There are a number ways you can support our Inspiring Art and Music appeal including:

Musical Chairs

L'entente cordiale, George Ogilvy Reid 1913

The new Cowdray Hall seating has been designed with flexibility in mind and will be portable, not fixed. In return for a donation of £150 we invite you to have your name, or the name of a loved one, inscribed on one of our 'Musical Chairs' - the perfect gift for a music lover!

Acclaimed artist John Byrne is supporting #IAM

This is an unmissable opportunity to own one of only 50 limited edition prints by John Byrne, one of Scotland's most highly regarded artists (it would also make a very special gift). Created exclusively by the artist with Peacock Visual Arts, the print costs £400 (unframed). All proceeds will go directly to the Inspiring Art and Music fundraising campaign for the redevelopment of Aberdeen Art Gallery, Cowdray Hall and Remembrance hall.
